Kipchoge 2:01:09 Official

People like you have had no business following the sport since Beamon's jump.

lol yup. Exhibition race with pacers, truckloads of EPO, literal spring loaded shoes.

Letsrun soyboys continue to salivate over this nonsense.

The bigger question is why do you follow athletics at all? You clearly think everyone is doping so what enjoyment do you get out of it? Or is your enjoyment in harassing others on Letsrun who clearly do enjoy watching a great performance?

Is that how long they've been doping?

Me too, and I guess the fact that I live in Boston, I really want to see him run here. He has already established himself as the GOAT, I’m hoping he runs Boston and New York now. Payout isn’t as good, but he has enough money, time to see how he does on the tougher courses.

are you dumb or what? This was a race dimwit.

Pathetic mate. You obviously live for trolling... You seriously need to be banned for life from here.

Its hillarious how you spring up from behind a rock every time anyone is talking about doping (or any top end performance). "Have you heard about my lord and saviour 'everyone is doping' and you are a gullible idiot if you didn't know, in contrast to me, which is very smart and very much aware of the realities of sport". Shooo.

That is a common response to the likelihood that a top performance will be doped now.

The movement is too optimized at this point. I expect at most 10-20 more seconds can be saved, maybe a minute with new shoes. People will continue competing for a while, but it would take inhuman luck in addition to perfect execution to beat this time. I wouldn't be surprised if this record stands forever.

The subject of doping in top-end performances doesn't have to be raised. It is a given.

He still has to be the favorite in Paris, even at 39. He is just that much better than everyone else.

In the above post you've also actually admitted that you do infact enjoy harassing people on LetsRun so hopefully that will actually get you banned!

Incredible! Eliud does it again. It would be amazing if he ran Boston and/ or NYC. I would love to cheer him in person.

It's almost like this guy is too good to be real.

A superhero out of the comic books.

So consistent in the marathon for so many years.

So many wins, so many fast times, so many WRs.

One bad outing his entire career.

Insane

Is the holy grail even-split thing proven for all marathoners? Is it proven for Kipchoge?

I mean, the guy just set a huge WR with a decent positive split, on a flat course. Has he never been in comparable shape, on a comparable course, with comparable conditions, where he ran more even splits but ran a worse time?

Surely someone has performed some stats wrt splits, on say the top 1000 marathon times, or enough times to negate effects of changing wind, etc. Or a selection of performances/courses, etc. Where is the evidence?

He seems unbeatable.

Maybe if Yuki can take him on in Monsoon conditions ....
